The Chess Board

[MorningLightMountain]

Hi WB, I read your posts, thanks for stopping by and contributing......

I've played "advanced chess", as well as vote chess when I used to be a member at a popular chess site.......the power of the group mind is impressive, as well as the now god-like computer engines.....it's interesting that the group can lose these matches against grand masters, yet chess engines running on modest hardware are now well beyond the capabilities of the best humans, even when given odds!!!

here is another "vs the world" match against chess prodigy Magnus Carlsen: (and he wins too!!!)
